Hey guys please tell me how your bio papers were!!!??? I thought it was horrible… I didn’t even get to write an answer for the hydrogen carbonate question because there was no time 🙁 and recycling paper question was dumb! and so was the red blood cells question.. ( what were the answers)?? everyone thought it was great in my grade so im definitely not gettn an A* now:/ even if paper 1 and 6 were amazin… im depressed I wanna die urgh!
Dont worry, mine went bad too 😐 but what scares me is that it went pretty good for many people :/
I did paper 31 and it was not that hard and had time to finish it. Paper 32 does seem really hard though.
for paper recyling i wrote ink is removed from paper and bleaching agents are added and then it is used as any other form (but a little ellaborated )
and I wrote sth. so stupid have no idea whether it is right or not for hydrogencarbonate thing i wrote it is yellow as O2 is released which is neutral (ellaborated) but overall it was really good compared to other papers
I think that’s wrong for the prediction bit, Samar. It had to be purple because, with greater light intensity, more photosynthesis occurs, thus increasing the Carbon Dioxide intake. This causes the pH to increase, and the colour to change to purple. I found the paper easy, because there weren’t any of those genetic variation type questions.
Yeah i wanted to say that actually, but I was thinking that the indicator is in the soloution form so CO2 is already dissolved and cannot be available for the plant but since it is just prediction I think your answer will be right (Y)
I think it was easy except for the prediction bit. I left that part
can someone actually predict the grade thresholds for maths paper 42 that paper is still haunting me man
dude elena
BLEEEEZ I HOPE THE THERESHOLD WILL BE LIKE
0-130 =A*
or else we are dooomed
it was actually damn good….. why did you find it so hard
vareint 1 was easy but long
Actually, exam wasn’t that easy and judging by the comments a lot of people screwed up. Plus, the curve is always low so achieving an A* or A is possible even if u didnt do great. Also, even if you didnt achieve the mark you want you have the Oct/Nov sessions to repeat.
Dear igcse team,
Can I know what will happen if I get C in any subject and the consequences I have to face.And what I may do further. Please.
Hi Salman,
It all depends on what you want to study further, and if this has any relation to this “C” subject. If yes, it might be a little difficult for you to get enrolled in. If no, then don’t bother 🙂
hey guyz,
was the exam mainly focusing on ecology and reproduction or the human systems ??
any answer after 30 mins will be useless
thank yoo
Hi everyone
Can I know if any of you solved the Bio paper 3 or 1 0610
If yes
How was it????
it was okay but it was too lengthy
Hi I gave it today overall I think it went pretty good but I just lost some time. What about you and which variant did you write.
I did variant 1 and it went really well! I’m happy about it, thank god.
I did paper 31 and it was not that hard and had time to finish it. Paper 32 does seem really hard though according to what people say.
hi Boshra
i did varient 1 and it was really good
im very happy about it
how did urs go? 🙂
Does anyone know why a small percentage of people get A*s in business when the grade boundaries are so low? Scary stuff
